Posting Pictures

[MUDHEN336]

I know it has been discussed somewhere before, but how do you post pictures on this site? Maybe a sticky thread with a tutorial for those of us who are technologically impared.

1. Open an account with Photobucket…it’s free
2. Upload a picture
3. Click on the IMG code this will a automatically copy it
4. Right click and past it right in your post
5. Hit submit and your picture is on the net for every one to see

This was cut and past from the forum thread. You can see more if you access the forum thread under posting pictures. Good luck.

The "preview" feature is a great tool to see if what you have written and the pictures you posted are what you want everyone to see. I always do "preview" before submitting. Only on the preview will you see the pictures before submitting. Your text will only show long drawn-out image codes. I've had captions on wrong images before and was able to go back and correct things on the original posting script.
I accidently pasted the same image code twice and saw that in a preview and was able to correct it. After the corrections I do a final preview before hitting the submit button. I have a camera with a sandisk card that plugs into an SD port on the computer and uploads to Photobucket easily. Not sure how it's done from other sources. Posting pictures was a lot easier to me than finally getting an avitar.
